When you put up a repeater, you put it up so you have maximum range. For example, put up BD224 rather than a wire dipole and add an amplifier.
In social media, putting up an account doesn’t mean much if no one listens to the account.
Just as in ham radio, drawing users to your repeater gets listeners to hear your information. One way to do that is nets.
The hashtag is a tool to bring more listeners to your message, somewhat like a net would increase your listeners.
As the message stated millions participated in the one-day even. That’s over 700 million per a State.
Ham radio hashtags such as #hamradio or #ARRL are important. Just as important are local hashtags for an event. For example, #Skywarn training in Oklahoma would use #OKwx to magnify the message.
Put up your repeater and social media accounts. Make both attractive to listeners.
